Top 10 Survivor Series Team Nicknames

Survivor Series is a late November tradition

#6 The Foreign Fanatics (Yokozuna, Crush, Ludvig Borga & Jacques Rougeau) - 1993

I guess Hawaii isn’t actually attached to the rest of the USA

We have to start by pointing out that Crush is from Hawaii.

With that out of the way, this team of evil “foreigners” was put up against the team of Lex Luger, The Undertaker and The Steiner Brothers, who called themselves The All-Americans. Clearly, at that time, if Lex Luger was wrestling, he had to be faced off against evil bad men from foreign (or sometimes domestic) lands.

The team name itself is pretty cool. It’s almost surprising that WWE didn’t just go all out and call the team “The Evil Foreigners”. That would have probably been less offensive than calling them fanatics, too.

About the author

I got my first big break writing for 411Mania back in 2004. I did a small spot in a big weekly piece that was written by one of the site's top writers. I quickly added the duty of being the live recapper for episodes of SmackDown, and in 2005 was given my own weekly column, which I did for a few years. I gave up writing (mostly) to start a family but got back into it, still at 411, a little over 3 years later. For another couple of years, I wrote 2-3 columns per week for the website before finding paid work elsewhere, and eventually wound up at SportsKeeda.

I am also the co-founder of the RBR: Weekly Wrestling Talk podcast, which started in the summer of 2005 and is still going strong today, almost 15 years later. Due to school, work, and family commitments, I left the team in 2011 but still remain a part of the family.
